Player Watch #36: River Stevens - Out 6-8 after a meniscus tear and surgery

[Hazey1977]

Also said that while he isn’t the best athlete he was in the top 2-3 kicks/decision makers with ball in hand, which will hold him in good stead at AFL level.

Given today's result, can we say tjat anyone who finished behind River isn't the best athlete either? [emoji2957][emoji13]...

TBH.... I'm a bit perplexed as to be what it says about the fitness of everyone else? [emoji848]

The glass is half empty, then…

Many pint glasses more than empty it seems.

It’s ok - he’s not here to play ruck

No shit, the point was if he was in the 170’s he might play sooner rather than latte

don't put the mocha on him

 

[Caracas]

He’s too “cortado” for DY.

Yep a lot of bitter people on here at the moment...

I just wish his pace was more espresso

Looks like a Capuchin.

I know.

Close enough…

How good would it be if he could ultimately make the same impact for us as Darcy Jones and Harvey Thomas did at GWS

I went to training wearing my cap, suddenly needed to do a pu and unfortunately got some on my ccinos.

Well done River, was concerned the extra 2kg of weight might hold you back but clearly not.

I remember the days a large lunch would move the needle. Long time ago though.

 

[apollo_creed]

Hang on... he is 49kg's... he'd be getting bullied around in under 16's at that weight.
Surely that can't be right? If it is then he's a long way off being ready.

 

[Caracas]

I’m quite sure River is around the same weight as Sugar Kayne Turner was when he was rookie drafted for the 2014 season. He, probably, had his most effective season in his first year.

Good try

They don’t post weights anymore

 

[zoomba23]

He certainly runs like a River

 

[outofthegloom]

Just like his old man then, too small to compete with Matthew Cappuccino for that ruck role!

For a skinny kid, he goes in and went alright on Saturday.

Looked a little filled out and did a couple of little things that made you 'go "hmm" and take notice' TM Kevin Sheehan.

 

[RightWingRoo]

For a skinny kid, he goes in

Don't think that was ever going to be in doubt, with his genetics.
